    Have any of you agreed to divorce even

    Not yet. However, in Florida, it doesn't matter if you consent or not. Only one party has to have a grievance. I was even told by my attorney that I may have to file in order to beat the clock for spousal support, since I haven't been served yet. I told my attorney and my therapist that there...

    Good news / praise report

    That is great news for you. I will continue to keep you in my prayers. On the flip side, my situation, similar to yours, has reached the last chapter. My wife told me last night that I need to hire an attorney, and I will probably be served sometime next week. Please pray especially for her...

    The last shoe has dropped on my marriage

    This afternoon I went over to fix my wife's computer; she and our children are living at her mother's. When she got off of work, she took the girls to the beach as it is our oldest daughter's birthday today. While they were gone, after I finished working on her PC, my father-in-law (he is my...

    My wife has moved out (my story in short) Prayers Needed

    SJ This is exactly where I was last month. Her words sound like a direct quote from my wife, only she said she has felt this way for years. Only two things are helping me: prayer of course, and giving her space. The only time we communicate is if it has something to do with our girls. You...

    Speaking from, ahem, experience, have him go to his doctor and have a simple blood test to check for low testosterone level. My doctor said this is not uncommon for men in their 40s, and there is know way to know without a blood test. There are several treatment options, and there is absolutely...

    Heart cracking

    I know that this is a tough time for you, from all of your previous posts. Prayer and trust in God is your best friend right now. For what it's worth, I would gladly trade places with you at the moment, though I wouldn't want you in my position. I may never have the pleasure of getting any...

    My wife moved out and took the kids

    Maybe you haven't followed this entire thread, I don't know. In her mind, she had to leave, and that is justification enough. It wasn't an easy decision, I can assure you that. We saw our pastor yesterday, and while naturally he doesn't condone divorce, he comforted her in her decision to get...

    My wife moved out and took the kids

    Thanks ari. I am still in counseling and plan to continue. I also have a prayer partner and a good support group from church. I have written her letters, repented, talked with her, asked for forgiveness, and she sees the changes in my life. However, she cannot accept that they are permanent...

    encouragement for marraiges

    What wonderful words of encouragement, Ari. I know that your posts always inspire me. As I continue to grow and learn, I hope that one day I can be as much of an encouragement to others as you.

    Feeling so discouraged today

    I know exactly the discouragement you are feeling. I have been going through the same thing for two months since my wife said she wanted a divorce, and then two days ago she left. The only thing that gets me through the day is prayer. Sometimes it is easier to pray than others, but I do it even...

    My wife's birthday is next week

    Well, the birthday dinner was a semi-disaster. Since I have gotten my life together, I wanted to start fresh with my wife as well. I asked her if we could treat the dinner like a first date. Wrong move. It upset her terribly. It did get us to start talking that night, which was good. But as I...

    Growing Weary or Standing Firm

    Sigh....I wish my wife could read your post. If I didn't know better, I would say she wrote it. Our story isn't identical, but close enough. Only she has thrown in the towel, and doesn't want to try to heal the break.

    I don't think I love him anymore...

    I have this book and started reading it when my wife first said she wanted a divorce. I can't get through it yet, because it hits so close to home and I get really upset, and I realize that my efforts may be futile. I wish she would read the book, but of course I could never suggest that.

    History

    I quoted just a part of your post because it really hit home with me. However, I did ask her if there were ever any good times, and though she agreed that there were, she said that it doesn't matter anymore. She left two days ago, moving out while I was at work. Prayer will get me through...
